Introduction
Integrated Weed Management (IWM) uses all available weed control strategies
in the best possible way to manage weed populations. Such strategies include
cultural, mechanical and chemical methods of weed control. All these practices
are components of an IWM system and none of these control measures on
their own can be expected to provide acceptable levels of weed control.
By following the principles of an IWM system we can reduce the use of
herbicides and at the same time provide optimized economic returns to
the grower.|
